Q8
live 20/40 game wednesday afternoon at bay101
i just came back from the bathroom and wandering around and i post my blind in the CO (BB + SB). its a pretty good game and i'm up a bit off of some sets i flopped. An aggressive asian surpisingly limps UTG. Bland UTG+1 and UTG+2 limps. A young'n trying to play well limps in MP1. Bland MP2 follows suit. Then the hijack ruins the fun and raises. I look down at my cards and see Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and make the call. The button and the SB both fold. BB calls. 8 way action for 17 small bets. Flop: T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]5 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] BB checks. UTG bets. UTG+1 folds. UTG+2 folds. MP1 raises. MP2 folds. Hijack 3-bets. I make a deep reach into my stack and cap it. BB quickly gets out of the way. UTG stares for a long hard second, shakes his head muttering something about AT and folds. MP1 quietly does the same and the hijack calls. Just me and him heads up now. Turn: T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] UTG jumps out of his seat and moans. Hijack checks. I check. River: 3 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] He checks and I check. He flips over JJ and I muck. And UTG wants to kill me.

Re: Q8
Why did you cap it on the flop?

No chance he lays down when the ten pairs? If not I love it.

Re: Q8
I understand the free card part, but what do you mean buying outs?

Re: Q8
just did the math. With 4 outs and assuming that you will indeed get a free river, this is play is EV neutral. In this case you actually have 5 outs, so it is a little better. I am amazed, however, that two players folded after betting and raising. Who lays down on the flop in live play?

(i.e. no more than the 4 small bets go in)
